SOL FAT QUIS DiCER :IVA - LEUM AWDEAT L U N D 0 ly, MONDAY, AUGUST 6, 1810 This.mo'r • ning: we received German Papers to the 21st ult. It appears that FOUCHE, instead of pro creclimg to take charge of the Government to which .13tioNArAuTE appointed him, when he dismissed - hurl front his office, has retired into private life in Provence. Whether he has resig\ned his Govern ment in disgust, or whether he has been deprived of it, these Papers do•not inforni us. Louis 800-, NAPARTE has arrived at Toplitz under the travelling name of M. DE ST. LEU. Yesterday • Dutch and French Papers reached •town, the former to the 3d instant, and •the latter to•the 30th ult. They contain the official aecount; by MASSENA, of the taking of Ciudad Rodrigo. It doeisampte justice to the, bravery of. the garrison and the inhabitants of that place. "It is impos sible," says 11 , 1AssENA; " to form an idea of the, s tile to which CiucLid Rodrigo is reduced. Every thing is battered down.and ruined; not so much as a, single 'house entire." The loss of the garrison and inhabitants is estimated at 2000. men ; that'of the Trench is not mentioned, but there can be no doubt but that it must haVe been very considerable. The Queen of Prussia died on the 19th Ult. of an. abscess on her lungs. There is a report,. but it is given in' a very'vague voy, of the Turks_hoing obtained a viCtory over the Russians. The report is not, however, to be en-. tirely discredited because it is not stated in an. of cial form. The Turks, it will be recollected, pub lish no Gazettes, and the German and' Dutch Papers are entirely under French contralti. ; All the Dutch troops havebeen compelled.to take the oath .of fidelity to BUONAPARTE. The Dutch Flag has been battled down .in all the ships in the Nellie and Texel; and the Imperial : Flag hoisted amidst reiterated shouts of " Long 'live the Empe r . rer,". from the delighted Dutchmen ! A Letter has been, received from Alv — erca, the Headsquarters of pc Dritinli Army in Portugal, dated the 19th ult. which states, that every thing remained perlealy quiet, and that a battle was daily expected. From the information, however, which has , readied us, of the movement of the French army, we, arevery much inclined to believe that there is no probability of a battle, at !east lot some time. A Gottenburgh Mail arrived this morning, but it brings no news whatever. ' Government received Dispatches this morning from Smith America. It appears that the province of Buenos Ayres has adopted the sameline of con duoi with that of Veneguela, in consequence of_the late events in the, Peninsula. . About the end Of-MaY, the Spanish Government, and Viceroy (here, were deposed, and a Junta of the natives appointed in their stead, pcofessing the most loyal allegiance to FERDINAND the Vllth, but deny ing the authority' of the Regency.

LIN, or placards, .were posted up through the city, calling on the Executive to adopt mea sures tor.avenging the injuries and .insults that h a d been heaped upon them by the French, whom they emphatically style, a nation of unprincipled pirates and robbri. No doubt was entertained of a war being inevitable. Tice Commander in Chief bas lately. issued an Order; that the whole of the regular army through " Out the different districts of England, shall undergo stn immediate inspection, in order to ascertain - the number of men fit for foreign service ; conse quence of whiCh the whole of the Fobt Guards now in town were inspected yesterday foren oon , by th e ir , resi;octive Doctors.

A letter from Constantinople, of the toth June, mentions, that Baron Hunscu, the Danish Charge d'Affaires at. the Porte, had recently suirmitted a proposal from his master, for a pacification between Turkey and Russia. The bases were, the perpetual renunciation by the latter Power of Moldavia and Wallachia, the cession of certain ports in the Black Sea, and the payment of twenty Millions of piastres.

Friday, John Brit ton, Captain in the West India Itimgers, was in indiaed for the wilful murder of his son, George Britton, by beating him and kicking him about the body. It appeared in .evidence that the prisoner had repeatedly beat his son very violently, and• Mr. Powell, ti surgeon, had no doubt that the mortifi cation, which was the cause of his death, ensued from the contusions on the bad:, which were the aggregate of several days beating. The indio meta, however, ,having stated the deceased to have been killed on a specific day,' when it turned out . that 'he had died of the aggregate ill treatmenr he had re ceived on -several da) s, and that the chastisement ihfli6ted on him on any one day, would not have been sufficient to have caused death, the Judge di- reeled the acquittal of the prisoner.
